Also, I am so done with CG animations. Way to make them completely unappealing by producing nothing but, Hollywood. Until they start making traditional animations again, I will continue to ignore all of them. I find drawings much more charming.

Ah, that's better. Not a good anime, but I'd still rather watch it a second time. Mobius is much more appealing to me than Sonic in our world.

Even the voice is generic. Sounds like so many modern comedies, instead of Sonic.

I would imagine the "skeleton" of the model, including the facial expressions and animations, doesn't need to be redone. They're only swapping the outer body, which will react according to the animations, velocity, etc.

That's where I'm at too. Sonic's design was just one of many things wrong with the movie. Even if we get a great looking Sonic from this, he'll still be trapped in a bad Sonic movie, which is mildly insulting to the animators tasked with making the better looking Sonic. Seeing lots of worry about them being forced through crunch on Twitter too, probably because of the wording of #gottafixfast Sonic fans are asking for the movie to be delayed, so that doesn't happen.

While it's going to get an extremely low review score, this thing will sell tickets, I promise you that much. As far as "delaying" the movie, studios very rarely do that and when it happens, it isn't with high budget films from larger studios. The last film that prominently was delayed was Under the Silver Lake - an R-rated movie with Andrew Garfield as the lead, with a budget of around $8 mil. Sonic's budget is reported to be $90 mil, so it's coming out November 8th, terrible looking Sonic or not.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. It's only my gut feeling, but I don't think Sonic is anywhere as popular among the mainstream crowd as gamers may think. He's not even that popular among gamers anymore really.

At this point, it feels like most people willing to watch the movie would do it to make fun of it. We'll see if they take the joke as far as actually buying a ticket when the time comes.

I don't think it will completely bomb, but I can't see it being a success either.

I'm just waiting to place my pre-order. I love what they do with these old movies with HDR, 4K and Atmos/DTS:X. Highly recommend The Bridge on the River Kwai in UHD for old war movies.

]]>http://forums.easyallies.com/post/85866http://forums.easyallies.com/post/85866Invalid Date@tokyoslim I disagree so mega hardcore, dude. Those are all my prime examples of prestige movie bloat (though Bridge to a lesser extent). Obviously all technical masterpieces, but huge examples of the self-important lack of editing that I think is the downfall of most movies of that caliber. Even Return of the King (which I freaking love) falls victim to this shit. You see it in all forms of media now (especially books and TV), and I largely trace it back to these kinds of movies. Plus Gone With the Wind. Way too long.

That said, hyped as tits for Apocalypse Now Final Cut. Gonna watch it at my boy's house.

I find it thoroughly entertaining. Lawrence of Arabia was better on my second viewing, but I wouldn't rank it among the very best.

Thats a nice big sip of bad opinion juice

]]>http://forums.easyallies.com/post/85882http://forums.easyallies.com/post/85882Invalid Date@ezekiel yeah Bridge on the River Kwai is really good, I just wanted to lump the three of them together because they were listed together. Again, all three are considered masterpieces for a reason, but I think Lawrence of Arabia and Doctor Zhivago especially are pretty bloated.
